THE FRONT: On to Makale

Dear to
venerable generals destined to die in bed are the largest and showiest
Zeiss field telescopes. Squinting through his on Ethiopia's Northern
front last week, goat-bearded Italian Commander Emilio de Bono was
trying to see what the Dictator's war machine was doing 40 miles
away. In the foreground Old de Bono could see distinctly part of a
grimy Italian labor battalion slaving to make roads, a spate of
lumbering trucks and tanks, many a picturesque sight full of local
Ethiopian color.
